FYI - tranny rebuild $1750

'at's right: a complete rebuild with a 3 year 50k nationwide warranty for $1750 including 3 annual servicings. Just did it and it runs like new, I mean "new"!!!! USA Transmissions in Hagerstown, MD. Norm owns the place and check the website (http://www.rebuilt-transmissions.us) for a $50 coupon. I'm more than happy.

Cool

What were the failure symptoms of your tranny prior to the rebuild?

Ron (just planning ahead).

When the car was started and shifted into "Drive" it did not move forward and actually required a bit of gas before it proceeded as expected. Lots o' slip!

That is a very good price for a rebuild.
Do he include the front dif, planetary gears and valve body in the std cost or would those parts be extra?

Significant Technical Input Registered SVX Classic SVX
Another MD tranny rebuilder

Another great place to have SVX trannies rebuilt is Glen Burnie Transmissions in Glen Burnie, MD. I talked to Rick there and he said a complete rebuild on the AWD would be from 1600-2600 with a 1yr/12000 mile warranty. You could add a 2 yr/24000 mile warranty for an additional $170 and a 3yr/36000 mile warranty for $395.

FWD rebuilds would be from $1600-2400 with a 1yr/12000 mile warranty. You could add a 2 yr/24000 mile warranty for an additional $160 and a 3yr/36000 mile warranty for $365.

Down time is about 6 days
